The Springlock Suits are Stupid, so I Fixed Them. (FNAF) 

There's actually two different types of springlock animatronic mascots. The Classics use the method you used in the video, with the springlocks allowing the endoskeleton and the suit parts to have a strong connection with each other, and the springlocks are disengaged when removing the endoskeleton so someone can wear the suit, the springlocks can still fail and cut into you, however an endoskeleton won't be jammed into you. This is what's known as a springlock failure, and is how the five MCI kids die during 1985, in the FNaF novel version of events. The second generation of springlock mascots that were only around for a short time use the method you used in your previous videos, with the springlocks allowing the endoskeleton and the suit parts to have a strong connection with each other, and the springlocks are disengaged, which allow a second set of springlocks to simultaneously pull back the endoskeleton, lining the suit so someone can wear it. These animatronics noticeably have human-accurate hands unlike the Classic springlock suits. If the springlocks can fail, the ones from the suit will cut into you, and a split second afterwards, the springlocks holding the endoskeleton back will fail simultaneously, with the endoskeleton jamming into you. This is what's known as a multiple simultaneous springlock failure. (Also, Henry is the one who created these suits, with William himself giving Henry credit, it's actually the first time the name Henry is ever brought up in the series iIrc.)

in the NOVELS (silver eyes) universe they have hooks that grab onto the removable endoskeleton at various points

@@Throwaway-g Page 267 of The Silver Eyes "You see, all the animatronic parts in that suit are still in it; they are simply held back by spring locks, like this." - William Afton(Dave Miller) There's simply just multiple versions, we're even told this in the FNaF 3 tapes, neither of the two versions are exclusive to the games or novels, they're in both.

Or Henry Emily

@JimMilton1873 No problem There's also the third generation suits, although I'm pretty sure there's only one of them, that being the faceplate suit in FNaF 5. It's also possible that most of Burntrap's endoskeleton consists of this third generation springlock endoskeleton, as it's a more advanced than the second generation springlock suit's endoskeleton, Burntrap also contains the Nightmare animatronics hands and has some Nightmare BB fingers on their right hand, possibly replacement parts if the endoskeleton's fingers were damaged.

look at previous game of fnaf yeah very obvious.

@@OwO377wha?? also, i dont think he intended to focuz on springlocks cuz he just wanted to make a horror game out of his kid games that people said was scary

To be fair if a suit this faulty exists then I have a feeling the suit was a designed killing tool meant to look like a product the company would realistically use just some of his later creations like the robotic ice cream scooper that’s designed to scoop a random kids brain. He just panicked and forgot that for a moment and killed himself, so good job William you hid in your custom Iron Maiden.

Henry designed them as a trap, not William.

@@oMorse We're told this in the novels, and in the games, Henry also builds the Rockstars for the same purpose, just look at L.E.F.T.E.'s blueprints. Henry also helped William create the Twisted animatronics.

@@ender01o66that has nothing to do with the springlock suits. Lefty isn’t a springlock suit, it’s used as a way to safety capture the puppet.

@@Mike14264 L.E.F.T.E. is a springlock animatronic?

You could still do that same exact thing if the Springlocks were on the endoskeleton, in fact it’d probably be way easier to rig up!

@@TheChiptide the springlocks are essentially the endo skeleton in the suit

@@TheChiptide because its retracting all parts of the endo into the sides of the suit making it very unique

There were definitely better ways to design the suit, but I think that what we got in the games is the most thematically appropriate. Afton designed it with the animatronic in mind first and foremost, disregarding the people wearing the suit as almost an afterthought. Fitting, for sure.

don’t you twist them back one by one in Sister Location?

There's two types of springlock characters, which are featured both in the games and novels.

@@Some_random_Stickman The first novel is a _very loose_ interpretation of the games, but a lot of events and elements flat-out do not carry over into the games. It is not an exact retelling, just an adaptation that was altered to fit the narrative format of a novel. The later two books are even more loose wit the canon, with events that are mutually exclusive with those of the games. By the way, "also don't argue" is one of the lamest ways you could end this take, as it is basically admitting you're wrong and hoping people will actually follow your instructions and not fact-check you.

@@Some_random_Stickman”I don’t like arguing.” By saying that and revealing your age, you basically open up the door for people to either correct you or verbally destroy/insult you for being a kid. A better way is to say: “I may be wrong/This information might not be correct, so please take it with a grain of salt.”

Pretty sure game theory made a theory similar to this

that's my boy!

yeah exactly. i have no clue why people said you take the endoskeleton out when that's not true at all

Yeah, but that design itself also isnt very logical. Ive always been fascinated and intrigued by fnaf 3's springtrap design, and it only looks cool but when taken a closer look, it doesnt make sense as to why intestines and guts are wrapped around an endo suit. Also, there's absolutely no room for a human, even as skinny as William was said to be, to fit in it while it is occupied by an endoskeleton. Look at his feet people. Where do his feet go? WHERE DO THEY GOOO!!!! 😵‍💫😣😵‍💫

@@EricLamas The flesh can merge with stuff around if it lays long enough it's biological thing.

​@@YokiDokiiIt's true for the classic springlock suits. Springtrap uses that technology to keep his ends in place when in animatronic mode, but 7nlike the classics, his endoskeleton also contains separate springlock technology that lines the endoskeleton against the suit, and has five fingers instead of four.

This video uses the novel version, while the first video uses the game version. The novels were honestly a mistake in regards to making things in any way clear.

@@syweb2 It's not exclusive to the novels, it's the Classic type of springlock suit, while Springtrap uses a later springlock design, which is also featured in the novels: Page 267 of The Silver Eyes "You see, all the animatronic parts in that suit are still in it; they are simply held back by spring locks, like this." - William Afton(Dave Miller)

but how will someone fit in because animatronic endoskeletons aint that skinny

Oh yeah, it’s definitely not a good idea, but when you’re insisting on using Springlocks there’s not a whole lot you can do

@@TheChiptide Where's the fun when it's safe? ;) Jokes aside, I'm actually trying to prove that the springlocks from the games are harmless :)

Oh hey, I remember you

@@RedHarlow1886 hey :) I see who you are!

@@technofurs IIRC there was a book moment where the springlocks didn't do shit

I always thought it was for immersion, like, a kid sees the animatronic performing on stage and think “wow, that exact same animatronic is coming to hang out!” When they come out sort of thing. Because if you look at Chuck E. Cheese for example, the suits look nothing like the robots.

@@ender01o66nope it’s supposed to be with you in THE SPRING LOCK SUIT!!!!!

@@gregorymirabella1423 Wdym? I've worn a suit before with just three fingers, and mittens have two fingers, so I don't recall how it's impossible. For a better example, please look up the images from the FNaF movie set, with one of the actors wearing the Classic Freddy Fazbear suit, which has four fingers. It's really not that impossible. And in the Tales from the Pizzaplex epilogues, the humans wear non-springlock suits with four fingers just fine. Another irl example are the Disneyland Micky Mouse suits, which have four fingers.

Yeah that definitely wasn’t true, it just pulls the endo to the back of the suit, so when it releases, the spring locks don’t actually stab you, just launch the endoskeleton into you at high pressure, that’s how William aftons eyes got replaced, and has endo parts all through his real body, or, what’s left of it.

Yea, you cant pull out a endo skeleton as all the parts will just fall, as the ed3o keeps it in tact.

Springtrap is a springlock animatronic, which has both the springlock suit mechanisms, as well as the springlock endoskeleton mechanisms, also known as a simultaneous springlocks.

@@ender01o66 never once did Scott say you could pull out the endo, all spring lock suits only could be worn as a costume with the endo inside or as a animatronic.

@@Bendaeevee That’s only the springlock animatronics, not the springlock suits. The FNaF 1 characters have springlock suits, and we see a bare endoskeleton without a suit in the Backstage room.

something a fangame did (“The Glitched Attraction”) supplied a non-canon explanation along those lines: the doors are powered by electromagnets, which hold them closed when the power is on. when the power runs out, the magnets shut off, and the doors are forced back open by springs or something, as a safety feature. because if the power went out and someone was stuck in there suffocating, the company wouldn’t have any legal recourse for their design choices.

The "it's a fire hazard explanation" has always made the most sense with one minor issue: if there's going to be one company makes doors that'll trap you in a burning building, it'll be fazbear entertainment.

@@alexanderchippel not really. fazbear entertainment the company doesn't have any murderous intent, they just cut safety measures wherever they can get away with. they might be fine with you dying, but it has to be provably not their fault because otherwise they'll have to pay expensive fines.

The real question is why they decided they needed automatic doors when regular ones that lock from the inside would work just fine

Springtrap is a different springlock model to that of the classics, however he also features the pins/hooks that keep the endoskeleton in place once he is in animatronic mode.

@@ender01o66 The classics aren't springlock suits, it's just Spring Bonnie and Fredbear. The main difference is games vs novels, as these two continuities have different types of suits - "Springlock animatronics", which are in the games and disassemble the whole endoskeleton, and "Springsuits", which are unique to the novels and use the pin/hook assembly mentioned in this video.

​​There's actually two types of animatronics that incorporate the springlock mechanisms. The first type are the classic springlock suits which feature the design shown off in the video, with the animatronic endoskeletons having visible holes for where the springlock mechanisms lock inside. These are the Endo 01's. These are the classic Fredbear, Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy animatronics. Then there's the full on springlock animatronics, which noticeably always have five fingers. The only springlock animatronics shown off in the games are two versions of Spring Bonnie, one of which is the Springtrap (a literal deathtrap created by Henry featuring springlocks), as well as a Minireena-like animatronic called Nightmarionne seen in the fifth game. These animatronic's suits have the same mechanisms as the regular springlock suits, however instead of the endoskeleton being taken out, a second set of springlocks pulls it back. Due to the multiple springlock-type mechanisms in play, these are known as simultaneous springlock mechanisms, which we hear about in the FNaF 3 tapes. Interestingly, the solution to the springlocks shown off in the video is very close to Fazbear Entertainment's solution to the problem, with the second generation endoskeletons (the Endo 02's), which are built with muscle-like wireframes that expand and retract depending on the size of the suit's limb pieces. However, due to two bite incidents, the Endo 02's are scrapped, and the Endo 01's are taken out of retirement. (I should probably mention that the Fredbear seen in FNaF 4's minigames is the Endo 02 version of Fredbear, so he contains no springlock mechanisms). There's also the Mimic endoskeletons who have the same abilities as the Endo 02's and were also scrapped due to an unknown incident as of now. It's quite possible that these Mimic endoskeletons are actually Endo 02's, just under another name.

@@ender01o66 bruh where the fuck are you getting all this from?

STOP SAYNG THIS SHIT. In the novels springlock suits did NOT have removeble endoskeleton. Who the f*ck gave you that idea?

Yeah, he's a type 2 springlock animatronic, they function differently to the classics.

​@@ender01o66dude, books aren't canon to games

Didn't know there were 2 types of springlocks, thanks for the cool fact

@@RedHarlow1886 No problem, it's what Phone Guy meant by the multiple simultaneous springlocks, there's the springlock endoskeletons that can be pulled back to let one wear the suit, and when the springlock endoskeleton goes back to animatronic mode, the springlocks that are attached to the suit itself push into the endoskeleton so that the suit pieces are firmly connected to the endoskeleton so they don't fall off. So, in the case of a multiple simultaneous springlock failure, all of the suit's locks will snap right into you, making deep symmetrical cuts all over your body, and a split second later all the animatronic endoskeleton parts the other springlocks had been holding back, all that sharp steel and hard plastic, will instantly be driven into your body. You will die, but it will be slow. You'll feel your organs punctured, the suit will grow wet with your blood, and you will know you're dying for long, long minutes. You'll try to scream, but you will be unable to. Your vocal cords will be severed, and your lungs will fill with your own blood until you drown in it... it's not too nice of a way to die- Also, the Classics are also springlock suits, we're told that in the alternate timeline of the novels, the kids are placed inside the FNaF 1 mascots, with the springlock pins cutting into them, letting them bleed out to death, however since their endoskeleton aren't springlock ones, they're pulled out, like in the depiction of them in this video. We're also told that the Classics are springlock suits in FNaF 3: " incident at the sister location involving multiple and simultaneous springlock failures, the company has deemed the suits temporarily unfit for employees. Safety is top priority at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, which is why the classic suits are being retired to an appropriate location while being looked at by our technicians." " I repeat, the classic suits are not to be touched, activated, or worn. That being said we are free of liability, do as you wish." There's also the original Fredbear in FNaF UCN, who is a springlock suit, and he's a Classic, so the classics are springlock suits... however their endoskeleton features no springlocks themselves. So, if a Classic suit had a failure, it'd just be a springlock failure, not a multiple simultaneous springlock failure- Sorry if that's kinda confusing 😅

The Classics suits use springlocks to lock the suit pieces to the endoskeleton, so they're not loose and won't fall off (as shown in the video), The last Fredbear's/Freddy's iterations of the springlock suits are all like Springtrap, with the same human hand type opposed to the cartoonish hands of the Classics. The suit's springlocks would act the same as the ones in the Classics, clamping onto the endoskeleton for stability, however, a second set of springlocks unique to these versions of the springlock suits pull back the endoskeleton, allowing someone to enter the suit without removing the endoskeleton. Hopefully that wasn't too much of a mouthful.

@@ender01o66 ...wait, you think the Classic animatronics, which, supposedly, still use the same endos as the Withereds (somehow, I'm still not sure about that), are also Springlock suits?

They're different endoskeletons, and we even see the dismantled Endo 02's in FNaF 3, alongside the Endo 01 suits that were dismantled during Follow Me. The only 80's animatronics that have no springlock technology are the Endo 02 animatronics and the Funtimes, who both use muscle-like wireframes to connect to the suit's pieces, while the Endo 01's lack this, and instead use the springlocks to connect the suit to the endoskeleton.
